#2: The Black Keys - Lonely Boy

This Ohio duo first crashed into the Hottest 100 waaaaay back in 2004. That year, they hit #67 with 10 A.M. Automatic and set a high water mark which, despite consistent love from triple j listeners and multiple Hottest 100 appearances (they made the list twice in 2010!) they've been unable to best. Until now, of course. They've bested it in spectacular fashion now!

Talking to Tom and Alex, The Black Keys' Pat Carney revealed that they got a little extra added value from the video (which you can watch above!):

"We made a video that accidentally got a lot of attention on YouTube and I think it's pretty funny. The guy in the clip's name is Derrick Tuggle and he's just an extra in LA and we cast him to do a little lip-syncing and dancing. It was supposed to be about a three-second clip in the context of a bigger video, but we scrapped the whole video just to use his moves."
